ABOUT US

Leading the way in passive fire protection for over 100 years.

WHO WE ARE

About Tenmat

Founded in Manchester in the early twentieth century, Tenmat has been manufacturing for over 100 years. Synonymous with quality and reliability, our passive fire protection products are meticulously engineered and rigorously tested to deliver optimum safety performance.

Our Irlam Manufacturing & Innovation Centre is where we develop and manufacture our industry-leading passive fire technology, which is commonly selected by architects and specifiers to be installed in buildings of all types across the world.

While we specialise in passive fire protection for brickwork and façades, ventilation, and service penetrations, our Firefly Millboard range provides protection in a variety of high temperature applications.

Simply put, we are experts in making things that withstand heat, and save lives.

Our reputation as leaders in what we do stems from our continued investment in research and development.

Our on-site Training Academy also enables us to educate architects and contractors about passive fire protection products and their installation – in tandem with our expert-led CPD sessions.
